Regulator of Sweetwater and the Steve Dean Forum sent me this miniature and I have to say that it was a joy to paint. Not the easiest of tasks though and I have to send my respect to all Landsknecht players and painters. You suffer every day and you have my sympathies. :D
I decided to depict a plundering mercenary of the Black Legion. I was told since that the Black Legion is rather problematic historically but I find it fits the bill. I can see a bunch of these fellas telling Maximilian to get lost. And then they grab a pig and a sausage each.

Lovely Doc,your basing is excellent too,interesting but subtle,the figure is not subsumed by the base,I ramble.

Thank you all for your kind words. Glad you said something positive about the base, Greywolf. I usually am just too cautious to try out something more extravagant although I would like to sometimes.
Very beautiful! Congratulations! One question: What colors you use to paint the Pegasus russian house of the old post?
Hey Priamo,
for the roof I used the Foundry Rawhide Triad. For the wood I used (in that order)Vallejo Burnt Umber- Vallejo Beige Brown- Vallejo Khaki- GW's Bleached Bone. I must also add that this is Lt. Hazel's recipe for which I am very, very thankful.
